I'm convinced we are the same person. I was going to post that word-for-word. Plus our predictions usually match-up exactly. What's in the DelCo water supply?!

He's the Republican's answer to Dennis Kucinich.

I don't know what the point of a conference call with the media and releasing an op/ed about the decision would be if you're not running.

On the other hand, here is johnbolton.com right now: http://johnbolton.com/site/

Then there's: http://johnbolton2016.com

And http://johnbolton.org redirects here: http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/House_Bolton

Is there really a shortage of foreign policy hawks in the race?

Thank goodness. Maybe if Peter King does the same we won't hit the big 2-0.

One more reason for every reasonable voter to vote Democratic.

The lack of publicized trips straight to IA/NH/SC right afterwards kind of gave it away.

Good.  He can go back to being completely irrelevant now.  Not that running would have changed that any.

He'll never get confirmed. They already shut Bolton out of the UN.

Old TeaBaggers who think the cabinet should be staffed by every candidate who ran for President in the primaries want him.

Typical post on Fox News.com: We NEED Allen West for Secretary of Homeland Security because he actually loves America unlike Obumber!

^^
Notice the capitalized NEED? They like to use that a lot. I spend a lot of time dissecting Tea Party comments for some reason.

A shame. I was hoping we'd get to see John Bolton give this speech word-for-word at his Inauguration.
